I was curious about using a 240v? pdu for my antminer s7 but have zero experience with them. I believe my house has a line in it that I may be able to utilize but I need to have an electrician look it over first (2 20amp fuses with a funny looking outlet presumably for a window a/c unit?). I was curious what brand pdu everyone is using and what type of plug end it has?? Do these have built in surge protection? I currently use multiple corsair psu hooked up to some battery backups but no way to remotely reset them while I am away. Sorry, I am fairly new to this

Are you saying 2 20 together? Like the ones with the bar between them hooking them together. Or are you saying two separate breakers? (40 amp would be a TON to give a window AC I cannot imagine any window ac having this, that is why I want you to check). Does your fusebox have written inside what goes to what? If you had a good electrician it will.... if lazy one it will be blank.

But on PDU I owe it to phil. You can get them much cheaper on ebay they the stores. I was looking at amazon and such and used working PDU's show up a lot on Ebay.

But I think find out more about the fusebox and go from there. But if you feel uncomfortable with power get a electrician as there is a lot of power. So it all kinda depends on you.

Yea, for that I would assume a standard dryer hookup as those are usually 40 amps.

It's hard to tell being across the internet. I know I have a lot to my kitchen to. I'm hoping it is written on the inside of his box.

But so far I'm not sure if him looking at it is good. I don't like to tell people to go check in it unless they are confident. And electrician will give quote for free if you are wanting 240 and not conformable doing it. Some are much better then others at telling you what your current setup is.

Are you in europe? Or us?

But:

Here is what the wall outlet looks like, right next to a window. There are 2 separate 20 amp fuses in the box next to eachother turned off. They are labeled "httr I flor 240" .... the previous owners were European that spoke very poor English

That looks more like a 110/120 outlet. 220/240 tend to be much bigger. Some one correct me if they think different. Here is a example of my 240 recpetical. http://www.lowes.com/pd_197494-334-L630R-L_0__?Ntt=l6-30r&UserSearch=l630r&productId=1056959&rpp=48
